Create spreadsheet

Here is a minimal example usage that will create spreadsheet file.

const { init } = require('excelize-wasm');
const fs = require('fs');

init('./node_modules/excelize-wasm/excelize.wasm.gz').then((excelize) => {
  const f = excelize.NewFile();
  // Create a new sheet.
  const { index } = f.NewSheet('Sheet2');
  // Set value of a cell.
  f.SetCellValue('Sheet2', 'A2', 'Hello world.');
  f.SetCellValue('Sheet1', 'B2', 100);
  // Set active sheet of the workbook.
  f.SetActiveSheet(index);
  // Save spreadsheet by the given path.
  const { buffer, error } = f.WriteToBuffer();
  if (error) {
    console.log(error);
    return;
  }
  fs.writeFile('Book1.xlsx', buffer, 'binary', (error) => {
    if (error) {
      console.log(error);
    }
  });
});

Create spreadsheet in browser:

View code

<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <script src="https://<your_hostname>/excelize-wasm/index.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
  <div>
    <button onclick="download()">Download</button>
  </div>
  <script>
  function download() {
    excelizeWASM
      .init('https://<your_hostname>/excelize-wasm/excelize.wasm.gz')
      .then((excelize) => {
        const f = excelize.NewFile();
        // Create a new sheet.
        const { index } = f.NewSheet('Sheet2');
        // Set value of a cell.
        f.SetCellValue('Sheet2', 'A2', 'Hello world.');
        f.SetCellValue('Sheet1', 'B2', 100);
        // Set active sheet of the workbook.
        f.SetActiveSheet(index);
        // Save spreadsheet by the given path.
        const { buffer, error } = f.WriteToBuffer();
        if (error) {
          console.log(error);
          return;
        }
        const link = document.createElement('a');
        link.download = 'Book1.xlsx';
        link.href = URL.createObjectURL(
          new Blob([buffer], {
            type: 'application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet',
          })
        );
        link.click();
      });
  }
  </script>
</body>

Reading spreadsheet

The following constitutes the bare to read a spreadsheet document.

const { init } = require('excelize-wasm');
const fs = require('fs');

init('./node_modules/excelize-wasm/excelize.wasm.gz').then((excelize) => {
  const f = excelize.OpenReader(fs.readFileSync('Book1.xlsx'));
  // Set value of a cell.
  const ret1 = f.GetCellValue('Sheet1', 'B2');
  if (ret1.error) {
    console.log(ret1.error);
    return;
  }
  console.log(ret1.value);
  // Get all the rows in the Sheet1.
  const ret2 = f.GetRows('Sheet1');
  if (ret2.error) {
    console.log(ret2.error);
    return;
  }
  ret2.result.forEach((row) => {
    row.forEach((colCell) => {
      process.stdout.write(`${colCell}\t`);
    });
    console.log();
  });
});

Add chart to spreadsheet file

With excelize-wasm chart generation and management is as easy as a few lines of code. You can build charts based on data in your worksheet or generate charts without any data in your worksheet at all.

const { init } = require('excelize-wasm');
const fs = require('fs');

init('./node_modules/excelize-wasm/excelize.wasm.gz').then((excelize) => {
  const f = excelize.NewFile();
  [
    [null, 'Apple', 'Orange', 'Pear'],
    ['Small', 2, 3, 3],
    ['Normal', 5, 2, 4],
    ['Large', 6, 7, 8],
  ].forEach((row, idx) => {
    const ret1 = excelize.CoordinatesToCellName(1, idx + 1);
    if (ret1.error) {
      console.log(ret1.error);
      return;
    }
    const res2 = f.SetSheetRow('Sheet1', ret1.cell, row);
    if (res2.error) {
      console.log(res2.error);
      return;
    }
  });
  const ret3 = f.AddChart('Sheet1', 'E1', {
    Type: excelize.Col3DClustered,
    Series: [
      {
        Name: 'Sheet1!$A$2',
        Categories: 'Sheet1!$B$1:$D$1',
        Values: 'Sheet1!$B$2:$D$2',
      },
      {
        Name: 'Sheet1!$A$3',
        Categories: 'Sheet1!$B$1:$D$1',
        Values: 'Sheet1!$B$3:$D$3',
      },
      {
        Name: 'Sheet1!$A$4',
        Categories: 'Sheet1!$B$1:$D$1',
        Values: 'Sheet1!$B$4:$D$4',
      },
    ],
    Title: [{
      Text: 'Fruit 3D Clustered Column Chart',
    }],
  });
  if (ret3.error) {
    console.log(ret3.error);
    return;
  }
  // Save spreadsheet by the given path.
  const { buffer, error } = f.WriteToBuffer();
  if (error) {
    console.log(error);
    return;
  }
  fs.writeFile('Book1.xlsx', buffer, 'binary', (error) => {
    if (error) {
      console.log(error);
    }
  });
});

Add picture to spreadsheet file

const { init } = require('excelize-wasm');
const fs = require('fs');

init('./node_modules/excelize-wasm/excelize.wasm.gz').then((excelize) => {
  const f = excelize.OpenReader(fs.readFileSync('Book1.xlsx'));
  if (f.error) {
    console.log(f.error);
    return;
  }
  // Insert a picture.
  const ret1 = f.AddPictureFromBytes('Sheet1', 'A2', {
    Extension: '.png',
    File: fs.readFileSync('image.png'),
    Format: { AltText: 'Picture 1' },
  });
  if (ret1.error) {
    console.log(ret1.error);
    return;
  }
  // Insert a picture to worksheet with scaling.
  const ret2 = f.AddPictureFromBytes('Sheet1', 'D2', {
    Extension: '.jpg',
    File: fs.readFileSync('image.jpg'),
    Format: { AltText: 'Picture 2', ScaleX: 0.5, ScaleY: 0.5 },
  });
  if (ret2.error) {
    console.log(ret2.error);
    return;
  }
  // Insert a picture offset in the cell with printing support.
  const ret3 = f.AddPictureFromBytes('Sheet1', 'H2', {
    Extension: '.gif',
    File: fs.readFileSync('image.gif'),
    Format: {
      AltText: 'Picture 3',
      OffsetX: 15,
      OffsetY: 10,
      PrintObject: true,
      LockAspectRatio: false,
      Locked: false,
    },
  });
  if (ret3.error) {
    console.log(ret3.error);
    return;
  }
  // Save spreadsheet by the given path.
  const { buffer, error } = f.WriteToBuffer();
  if (error) {
    console.log(error);
    return;
  }
  fs.writeFile('Book1.xlsx', buffer, 'binary', (error) => {
    if (error) {
      console.log(error);
    }
  });
});
